Biomedical Interview in UKM

This is the third interview that I attended in this year. By the same way, I checked the interview offer via UKM website. I got two interview offers from UKM. The biomedical interview was held on 10am in Klinik Audiologi Dan Pendengaran UKM in KL while the pharmacy interview held on different date and location.

23rd May 2015

I woke up at 5am to prepare everything. After everything is done, my dad fetch me to KL. By the help of waze, we reach the place on 9am but didn't saw any building like a clinic or university. It was Taman Titiwangsa. Did we went to a wrong place? There were a lot of people jogging and cycling. I felt nervous and stomachache again. My father got off from car to ask the people around for the clinic and also the toilet. With the help of the people and also i called my friend to ask about the location, we reached the clinic. 

After my father parked his car, i immediately go to toilet. The toilets were in the hostels of students. There were a lot of cats. The cats can be seen everywhere. I thought i was in a cats park. haha.. Although i reached there an hour before the time given to me, but a lot of students reached there and i saw a long queue at the registration counter. I was late again.. I found that the interview not only for biomedical course, it also included nutrition, audiology,dietetics and others course that related to health. Then i sat on the chair that provided and chat v my friends. my friend reached there around 7am, she got 5th number to be interviewed, while i got 88th. haha.. such a huge difference. After that, the clerk started to call the number to enter the interview room. They call 3 numbers once.. This interview was different, 3 persons enter one room and encounter 3 interviewers. 

At 10am, finally it was my turn to enter the room, together with one malay guy and one indian guy. I was the first one in the room. Firstly, the interviewer called us to introduce ourselves. Then ask us why we want to choose our particular course. The malay guy came here for environmental health, while the indian guy and I came for biomedical science. Then, the interviewers ask us if we given other course that out of the course we came to interview will we accept it.After that, they asked us about our 1 achievement and 1 weakness. It was a short interview. It took around 10-15minutes. average 3-5 minutes for each student only. I wonder how they choose students for particular course. After the interviewer ended, we leave the room and the office.
